Dr. Huacuz in Mexico?

luv2bingo07 · 01-10-2007, 05:50 PM

I was just wondering if anyone has been banded in Mexico with Dr. Huacuz? I received several emails from his office explaining package prices with/without airfare and it sounds to me to be a great deal. I was originally going to go with Dr. Ortiz, but they both sound wonderful with care and all. :tired

Thanks,
Judy

I was banded by Dr. Huacuz in May 2006 and have lost a total of 97lbs with only two fills..My wife was banded by him in August 2006 and has lost 65lbs with one fill..I have a dear friend who was banded by him in July 2005 and has lost and maintained a 100 lb loss..He and his staff are fantastic and his new clinic is wonderful..Have no fears of him..PM me if you have any questions.

They are competent, caring, and professional. I recommend them.

DR. HUACUZ RULES!

Everyone in his team go out of their way to take care of you. He is very knowledable in his practice and his clinic is clean and professional. Your in good hands if you chose Dr. Huacuz.

Lots of luv! Alice

I was banded on Nov 28. I would recommend him. I'm down 43 lbs, no complications and feeling great.

Where is his clinic located? I had mine done in Monterrey, I wonder if it is close to him. I chose a hospital though, I was afraid of something happening and I didn't want to be in just a clinic when it happened. Even though nothing happened =)

He is about 10 minutes from the border going into Tijuana. He has got a nice practice and his team is great as I mentioned before. You can also check huacuz.com. I believe that's his website. If not send me a message and I will send the info. good luck!

Hi Judy,
I am scheduled to get banded by Dr. Haucuz on the 6th of February and can't wait! Just took my "before" pics and want to reschudule for tomorrow!! :omg: I have done a lot of research and after having been denied by insurance 2 times now I have given up. Not worth the brain freeze. Keep me posted and I'll do the same for you!

I am curious to know how much it actually does cost in Mexico?

That is really good. It is double that in Canada and I have a friend who wants to do it, but doesn't have all the funds. So I am going to tell her to look into Mexico...

Thanks and good luck!

I was banded by Dr. Huacuz on 8/30/2005 and I don't have one bad thing to say about him. He was absolutely wonderful! I trusted him the moment I met him, he made me feel instantly at ease. I would 100% recommend him to anybody.

Now, that being said......make sure you have local aftercare, this is very very important. I underestimated the importance of that big time. My local aftercare is over 4 hours away, making it very difficult for me to make the trip to get necessary adjustments, therefore, I haven't lost any weight. There are other factors as well, but that is the main one. So be sure to have aftercare lined up!!!

Dr. Huacuz is THE BEST!!!

He did my band on 4/15/05, I lost great until my band slipped, and he won't contact me, so maybe more research would be better

Dear rere50, You may want to try to email Dr. Huacuz on his contact tab at his web site or go thru info@huacuz.com It always works for me when I set up visits. The best of luck CJay
